ATLAS

To become an accomplished teacher, you need to see an accomplished teacher.

The National Board aims to strengthen the career continuum for teachers by offering ATLAS, Accomplished Teaching, Learning and Schools®. ATLAS is a library of authentic video cases showing National Board Certified Teachers at work in the classroom.

Access to more than 1,300 cases covering most subjects, grades and school settings. Indexed to standards and frameworks for teachers and students, ATLAS cases offer a visual representation of these standards providing a clear image of accomplished teaching.

All ATLAS cases are from National Board Certified Teachers. Each video case has been validly assessed as accomplished practice, according to National Board Standards.

Video cases are comprised of an authentic unedited video, the teacher’s written reflection about the lesson, and related instructional materials.

To build a stronger profession, we must provide aspiring, new, and professional teachers with a clear picture of what accomplished teaching looks like and how accomplished teachers continue to improve their practice.
